Marco Rose and Marcel Rapp will be suspended on matchday 3 of the Bundesliga. The Leipzig coach expects an accumulation of cases and also criticizes the suspension against his captain.

Marco Rose, who has been suspended for the upcoming Bundesliga matchday, is expecting a higher number of suspensions for coaches. "That won't fail to happen, the way the new standards are set. Everyone will find solutions and deal with it in a relaxed manner. But it shouldn't happen too often," said the RB Leipzig coach.

Rose was shown a yellow card in Leverkusen before the international break and will have to sit out the match against 1. FC Union Berlin on Saturday (3.30pm/Sky). Holstein Kiel coach Marcel Rapp will also have to sit out against Bayern Munich due to his red card against VfL Wolfsburg.

Hummels one game, Orban two games

This is not a new situation for Rose. As coach of Mönchengladbach, he was shown a red card in the cup, and last season he was suspended after receiving four yellow cards at Leipzig. Against Union, Rose will be replaced by his assistant Alexander Zickler, who was already in charge for large parts of the win in Leverkusen.

Rose criticized the German Football Association's sports court for the two-match ban against captain Willi Orban. The club had appealed twice, going all the way to the DFB Federal Court. Without success. "The reasoning was not particularly satisfying for me as a coach," said Rose. "I'm in favor of justice and creating comparability."

The club was concerned that Mats Hummels, in the service of Borussia Dortmund, had been shown the red card for an almost identical foul to the one Orban committed against Bochum's Myron Boadu on matchday 14 of last season against Leipzig. However, the former world champion was only suspended for one match. "Of course, we tried to understand why Willi was suspended for two games and Mats only for one," explained Rose.
